I am a senior HR leader who is passionate about the success that happens at the intersection of inclusion and employee engagement. Purpose-driven employees who feel valued and impactful at work are happier in life, and I am driven as a leader to make this happen! My work ranges from building and launching new programs, to evolving culture change, to advising leaders and resolving difficult people-related challenges.✅ Leading Through ChangeMy career has had a theme of advising and managing through change - with a strong emphasis on supporting the people affected by the change while meeting the business objective. How an organization treats people during difficult times speaks volumes and can reduce risk.✅ Workplace CultureThe intersection of employee engagement, Diversity & Inclusion, and the multi-generational workforce sparks lively conversation for me and I'm excited about the future of this trio working together. I am deeply committed to providing a culture where employees can bring their whole self to work and inclusion is part of the cultural fabric. I believe everyone in an organization plays an important role in building and sustaining a purpose-driven, diverse and inclusive culture where employees are fully engaged, excited and highly productive.✅ HR PracticeI work to resolve problems at the lowest level and provide leadership coaching and development. I have significantly reduced costs related to separation agreements, litigation and unemployment insurance through employee commitment, accountability and leadership coaching. I have built innovative programs to support business objectives through HR partnership. ✅ SustainabilityGrowing up in Hawai'i, my family was an early adopter of recycling, solar power and keeping plastic out of the ocean. I have been proud to bring my personal commitment to sustainability to help migrate to paperless HR functions, provide recycling, and reduce personal printers. I am a strong believer in ESG investing and actively support certified B-corps.👩‍💼 Learning & Growing in LifeI love exploring new places, learning about different cultures, and I'm a huge museum and library geek! During the pandemic, I am studying and dancing hula through zoom, and learning ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi (the language of Hawai'i). Running with my dog is a wonderful stress reliever and a perfect way to take advantage of the natural beauty of Nashville.Mahalo nui loa (thank you very much) for learning a little about me!
